The only area that has given me irritation in owning a Surface RT has been the severe lack of quality apps. But I'm starting to find apps that provide the level of quality that I expect from other platforms. Here's a few that I just installed. Hopefully others will add to this. Not just any apps, but something that is of high quality. If you add to the list, give a reason why it is noteworthy. Just because we're not using "the" tablet everyone else owns doesn't mean we should settle for second best.
COVER - Comic Book Reader (Free)
Why it's noteworthy: I've installed over a different CBZ/CBR readers and only Cover was able to handle my 99MB+ CBZ/CBR files of vintage store catalogs and magazines.
PLEX - Media Client ($4.99)
Why it's noteworthy: Although it killed me to pay $5 for an app, the ability to stream 3TB+ of media from my Macbook Pro in a high quality interface on my Surface RT ended up being worth it. Plex in my household environment is turning out to be far more usable and stable than Apple's AirPlay (even though all components were Apple's). Oh, and the Windows Phone version of Plex works great on my Lumia 520. (It was Free, though I don't know if it is because they don't charge for it or because I purchased the RT version)
